DYN tracks

[michelouim]

hi,

In MSTS, a DYN track section is easy to spot with the green tag on it at the connecting end. I dont see that feature in TSRE5 and i have the latest version installed (v0.697). Is it me that has not selected something? Or is it a feature to come?

Thanks

Hi Michel,

I consider the green thing a feature not needed.
Click on the track and you'll see the properties displayed. The track itself gets the Blue outline of selected objects.

In MSTS it was sometimes a killer if a track section was selected. This is no longer the case.

Remember the admonition "NEVER save with a track section selected" rule? That's gone also . . . so no green thingy's are fine by me.

regards,

Thanks Vince

My asking is that after a TSUtils-ICHK, i had a lot of those Dyn tracks in error. To find them, i have to open MSTS-RE, spot that green thing, find it in TSRE, compare the IUD from the report with the one given in TSRE, and delete the Dyn, save the route, place a new one with new adjustments, save the route, go back to MSTS-RE, find another green thing,....you understand ... I have to have both MSTS-RE and TSRE open in order to have the good Dyn as not all of them are faulty, why, i dont know.

Why you think that they are in error?
If there is something wrong with train path, then you will see something wrong with yellow line.

i have one in error. in MSTS-RE, it is just a plain yellow line from one track to the other, and in TSRE, i have the same. when fixing the new parameters in TSRE5, i modify them, adjusting length or radius or angle and in the next ICHK, it is not in the report. but other Dyn track have a regular shape in MSTS-RE but sometimes the yellow line is not there in TSRE5 or there is a yellow line going nowhere, mainly in those with 1 straight section, 1 curve section, and 1 straight section as if the curved section was in the opposite direction or something like that.

Why my TRKDatabase is corrupted like that, i dont know. i am almost done correcting it but i would have enjoy to have only TSRE5, as only it gives the UID of the track section. if you say that there is an actual easy way to spot a Dyn, i would like to know it because to me all the tracks sections are similar. if that feature is not necessary, i will go with that too, hoping that i will never have any Dyn in error in the future.

As for train path, i will soon have another ICHK done and i will check if the few that i have are still free of errors.
